I'm gonna go with Option A. Acting unethically is pretty much the opposite of what the ACFE code is all about. Gotta keep it professional, you know?

Haha, Option D is a classic! Engaging in illegal behavior, really? That's just common sense, not something that needs to be explicitly prohibited.

Hmm, I'm not sure. Option C sounds like it could be a trap. You can't have any undisclosed conflicts of interest, that's a big no-no.

Option B seems like the obvious choice here. Drawing conclusions based on evidence is what we're supposed to do as fraud examiners.

But isn't drawing conclusions based upon evidence a fundamental part of investigative work?
